I have never argued that it doesnt (in fact, I have stated multiple occasions that it does).But so does doly ardor. What is sais is completely explicate and completely contradicatory to Precision.The example of the fireball (read any power that does damage). I could argue that, given a good 80-90% of attack powers stipulate damage, that the base damage stipulated on a power is the general rule and that the boosters to this (Weapon Focus for example) are the specifics. But I wouldnt argue it becaue its an example which is in no way in debate. It is the understood and accepted norm, so we dont even need to apply rules of specific vs general to it. Its comparing apples and oranges.Now you said the daggermaster is irrelevant to this discussion (yet you thought comparing fireball damage was?). I included him as an example of when precision is applied and pointed out why, so no, its not irrelevant at all because it helps us understand when precision is applied. Same goes for weapon mastery and I could just as easily used them as the example. In both cases, the syntax against them is non explicate and therefore there is no conflict.</blockquote>
